Off the streets
I
t’s a typical Saturday afternoon
on Cathedral Square in
Peterborough, in the east
of England. Two noisy gangs of
young people are sitting in the
centre of the square. In one group
the kids are wearing tracksuits
and baseball caps and brand-new
white trainers. A lot of them are
wearing jewellery like gold chains
and earrings. They’re the ‘Chavs’.
Opposite them are the ‘Goths’.
They’re wearing black Doctor
Marten boots, long black coats and
black T-shirts with the names of
their favourite bands on them.
1 ?
Nervous shoppers hurry past
both groups, trying not to make
eye contact. It seems to be quiet,
but you feel that at any moment
a fight could start. The police say
these young people are probably
harmless – perhaps they just
hang around the square because
there’s nothing better to do. But
older people say they are tired
5

of putting up with the noise and
litter. 2 ? But after trying several
different methods, Peterborough
City Council has a radical plan to
change things.
The council’s controversial plan to
bring peace to the city starts on a
Tuesday morning during the halfterm holiday. A group of fourteen
Chavs and Goths of both sexes
are travelling by bus to a secret
location in the countryside, ten
miles out of town. There are more
Chavs than Goths – maybe it’s hard
for some Goths to get up in the
mornings! When they finally arrive,
supervisors ask them to put on
camouflage clothing and give each
person a gun. And then the two
gangs spend the rest of the morning
shooting at each other. Don’t worry
– the guns are not real, of course.
3 ?
But isn’t it dangerous to fight
aggression with aggression? Is a
game of paintball really the best way
30
35
40
45
to bring young people together?
Steve Mayes, the organiser of the
event, feels that it is. He thinks
these controversial games give the
two groups something to do and
can start them talking. ‘It gets rid
of a lot of energy too – it’s much
better than playing games on
Playstations and Xboxes,’ he says.
Meanwhile, the Chavs and Goths
are fooling around : there’s a lot of
shouting and laughter and everyone
appears to be having fun.
At the end of the day Steve Mayes
believes the event was a success –
the two groups are already talking
to each other. 4 ? ‘You choose
which team you belong to. But at
the end of the day, Chavs and Goths
are the same sort of people.’

Dan: ‘I almost didn’t come this morning, but my friends persuaded me.
There was a lot of aggression to begin with, but everyone calmed down
in the end. I bumped into an old friend from primary school who I hadn’t
spoken to for years, but he seems just the same as ever – in fact, I got on with
him really well. The atmosphere in town is probably a lot better now.’

FASHION
HOW IMPORTANT IS IT TO YOU?
We asked some teenagers for their opinions …
Sian loves shopping for clothes with her friends.
‘We really enjoy ourselves.We help each other
look for bargains.’
Mick doesn’t care what he wears. ‘Some people
look at themselves in the mirror all the time, but I
think your personality is more important than your
appearance.’
Claire makes her clothes herself. ‘I think it’s important
to have an original look.’
Chris hates trying on clothes in shops. ‘I don’t usually
buy my clothes myself. Other people get them for me.’
Omar cares about his appearance, but he doesn’t spend a lot
on clothes. ‘I think if you pay for your clothes yourself, you’re more
careful about what you buy.’

Investigative people enjoy working with theory and
information, organising and understanding. These people
like to analyse, they are curious and they are independent.
Give them a problem and they will find a solution. These
people make excellent lawyers, mathematicians and
university professors.
2
Artistic people prefer creative activities that allow them
to express themselves. These people are imaginative and
emotional, but also disorganised and impractical. They
don’t cope with everyday problems very well – not because
they can’t, but because such problems bore them. They are
good artists, musicians, and writers.

Social people are happiest when they are giving advice
to others, assisting people to deal with their problems, or
encouraging them to develop in some way. These people
are easy to work with, friendly, understanding and sociable.
Doctors and teachers are good examples of this type of
person.

Persuaders like to influence others. They enjoy talking
and do it often. Competitive environments suit them very
well. They are not afraid to be in charge, they are good at
selling, and want status. Such people are energetic and selfconfident, but also bossy. They do very well in management,
marketing, and sales.
